I do believe that it is. Check out these logcat entries:

I/InetAddress( 2765): gethostbyaddr: getnameinfo: 119.161.80.9 = bigtincan.com

I/InetAddress( 2765): gethostbyaddr: getnameinfo: 119.161.80.9 = bigtincan.com

I/ActivityManager( 2060): Starting activity: Intent { cmp=com.bigtincan.android.adfree/.DoUpgrade }

I/System.out( 2765): localver=0,remotever=1253677997

I/ActivityManager( 2060): Displayed activity com.bigtincan.android.adfree/.DoUpgrade: 583 ms (total 583 ms)

Note the "localserver=0". I'm guessing the app can't determine the size of the existing /etc/hosts file (possible permissions issue?) and assumes it's empty/missing. Not a big deal, but would be nice it that was fixed.
[G1 Apps and Games] Gilliland12:
I'm running the sh script and I am noticing ads on more and more apps. Browser is still clean, but some apps are having them show up. Any thoughts anyone?
[G1 Apps and Games] atrant:
does anyone know how to block contacts sync with google with this app?
[G1 Apps and Games] :
You want to stop your contacts syncing with Google? Settings > Data Synchronization > Google > Contacts
[G1 Apps and Games] fignew:
Has made something like this?

Just some ideas if it hasn't already been made:

-Daemon only listens to localhost (lo interface)

-Written in C/C++ (low memory footprint, outside of Android)
[G1 Apps and Games] nopotential:
The app worked on both Stable Cm and Experimental.

Now it fails to update host file on 1.6Akirah 2.1

Had to do it the terminal way.

Anyway to fix? Also just letting you know. Great app though before I flashed Akirah :)
[G1 Apps and Games] Chahk:
Check logcat output. Could be permissions issues.
[G1 Apps and Games] nopotential:
By posting the whole log am I gonna risk posting any sensitive information about my phone?

Anyways, here is the only thing I could find that looked like an error.

[G1 Apps and Games] gurugabe:
auto check

For some reason, don't know why yet but probably because I have numerous apps on device, adfree appears to not be automatically checking for updates. At all. I have it checked. But I have to manually go to app and update daily or whenever I remember to. Running jf cupcake on g1. I have about 180 apps which can slow down phone sometimes. Really love the app though, couldn't bear internet on device without it.
[G1 Apps and Games] delta_foxtrot2:
I really don't like the way they've implemented timed triggered apps, I thought I had it setup properly but it's hit and miss I'll have to play with it some more.

Updates recently have mostly been to add additional paths for 'cat' because the different ROMs tend to store binaries in different directories. Fun and games...
[G1 Apps and Games] delta_foxtrot2:
Depends what apps have dumped into it, but potentially yes.

the number in ()'s is the process ID, 92 and 430 look to be different apps and unrelated to adfree.
[G1 Apps and Games] delta_foxtrot2:
I'm thinking about setting up a basic site on a work server that sends back blank pages by catching 404s etc and then setting as many cache headers as possible for as long as possible that way the browser should only need to request pages once hopefully.
[G1 Apps and Games] delta_foxtrot2:
New version up, 0.2.20, it has another check box that instead of setting ad hostname IPs to 127.0.0.1 points to 119.161.80.12, there is 2 files, a php script that checks for the extension of the request and if it's a .png, .jpg or .gif it redirects to 1px transparent gif. Otherwise <html></html> is returned.

By default the app will still set the IPs to 127.0.0.1, if you do choose to use the alternative IP you will need to download another copy of the hosts file so it updates.
[G1 Apps and Games] Vlad83:
Excuse my ignorance on the subject, but which option would be faster?
[G1 Apps and Games] delta_foxtrot2:
Depends on the app, if the app caches the data properly the speed should be identical after you have the image/html page loaded, the difference would be you won't see the android error page.
[G1 Apps and Games] fignew:
Many thanks for this. Just two requests though. Could you add an option to customize the IP address that is placed in hosts.conf & could you release the source to your blank html/gif PHP program? I'd like to setup my own server.
[G1 Apps and Games] delta_foxtrot2:
0.2.22 allows you to enter a custom IP, however it's quick and dirty and doesn't bother checking that what you enter is valid or not...

As for the php code:

<?
$path = $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
$path_parts = pathinfo($path);

$ext = strtolower($path_parts['extension']);

if($ext == 'png' || $ext == 'jpg' || $ext == 'gif')
{
header('location: pixel.gif');
exit;
}

echo '<html></html>';

And pixel.gif can be found: http://www.bigtincan.com/pixel.gif

You will also need to edit your web server config to trap 404 errors and redirect them to the above php script.
[G1 Apps and Games] lb fam:
Backgrounds

I am still catching ads in the backgrounds app. Can you update the. Config to get rid of these? I am currently running cyan 4.1.9999
[G1 Apps and Games] delta_foxtrot2:
If ads are showing up but the app was able to replace the hosts file it doesn't matter what ROM you are using, it matters about the hostname of the ad server, you can grab this by running logcat via adb or installing a terminal app and running logcat from the command line.
[G1 Apps and Games] moosefist:
Is there a webserver setup for this yet?
[G1 Apps and Games] delta_foxtrot2:
use what ever webserver you like, you just need to have a dedicated IP for this to work, you then add the php script, I set it up as index.php and setup the 404 redirection to index.php and it takes care of the rest.
[G1 Apps and Games] delta_foxtrot2:
AdFree can now be translated. I spent time today updating the code to cope with translated strings so if you are, or know someone, willing/able to help with translation please let us know.

Is there a free webserver tthat i can do this with?

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] OrionBG:
Hello All

I've been looking for TouchFlo 3.0.38196.3 but I can't find it anywhere! It is integrated in Davide's HP v1 WM6.1 rom and there is no mention about it anywhere else! Can someone help me?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mwatson:
The original TD suffered from poor 3G reception. GSM wasn't much better either, How does the TD2 hold up on this?

Thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlui1:
I use "3" in Australia, and reception on the Diamond2 is horrible. "3" is a 3G-only network, and GSM-roaming (which has high data roaming costs) is available.

With my old HTC TyTN II, I would get almost full 3G reception sitting in my room. Right now, with the Diamond2, I am getting 1 bar if I'm lucky. It is always dropping out to GSM.

This is a huge problem for me, as data costs is high while roaming. I am hoping that in the future, a compatible radio ROM would become available, so that I can try and get better reception.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kly:
Reception is not super, but it's all right !

GSM reception is very good ... whenever the TD2 finds a 3G network, it will only display the reception of that signal (which is lower as a standard) ... that is why reception 'seems' lower.
[HTC Vox] Chimaeira:
Hi everyone,

Could anyone tell me what application runs when voice dialing? I hope to replace it with VoiceCommand.exe to make that run instead when I press the voice dial button.

I have been searching all day for a solution to this and found a lot of threads suggesting me to replace the DSdialer.exe in the windows map. I would if it was there. I think it's named differently on my device, just need to know what's it called.

Thank you in advance.
[HTC Excalibur] devil slime:
i would like to know how to change the short cuts like the long prees IE button which opens comm manager to a different comm manager(htc comm manager) and customize the rest...?

i am using the latest kavana rom.
[HTC Excalibur] AlekSS-881980:
Just find in Windows\ shortcuts like Short_Camera.lnk, Short_IE.lnk , Short_MSG.lnk etc., open it with Notepad (or over text editor) and change path.
[HTC Excalibur] devil slime:
but its only for those that you mentioned..how do i change it for the long IE press?
[HTC Excalibur] devil slime:
kavana sent me this ....this is how u change long press IE to HTC commManager

use registry editer HKCU\software\CeleTask\ and change wrlsmgr.exe -> CommManager.exe
[G1 Android Development] AtzHash:
Hi, I currently have 1.1 “JFv1.43 for UK RC9 firmware!” :)

I want to update to 1.5 (cupcake), so can someone please tell me which update I should use as most of the update are for US users? :confused:

Also after updating, does the phone retain root access? :confused:

Thank you,

:D
[G1 Android Development] hussein.j:
Every firmware I have tried has worked fine for me in the UK. At the moment Haykuro's ADP1.5Hr1 with radio 2.22.19.26I is the best so far, really is totally perfect for me.

Make sure you wipe your phone.
[G1 Android Development] hussein.j:
Kinda on-topic question...

Why was JF 1.43 RC9 'UK' specifically marked for UK users?
[G1 Android Development] AtzHash:
Thank you for your prompt reply.

I knowledge on this subject is very limited, hence these questions.

By using “Haykuro's ADP1.5Hr1 with radio 2.22.19.26I” will the T–mobile internet work and whats the down side to wiping the phone and using unofficial 1.5?
[G1 Android Development] MrADeveci:
You will loose all your settings and apps so will have to re-install them.
[G1 Android Development] AtzHash:
That’s not too bad. How about all my contacts and I forgot my gMail password and answer to my secret question?
[G1 Android Development] Zappza:
UK APNs and UK Numbering format.

Both the ADP and the RC33 builds have the US numbering format, and as this isn't used in Europe it looks like rubbish.

I would recommend the Haykuro H build. This is the build I am most happy with.

You can use the "official" 1.5H build from haykuro aswell, if you want to have root and some other benefits but still retain the base build from HTC.
[G1 Android Development] thefunkygibbon:
why are you talking in bold/big text?

if you've forgotten your password AND secret question then thats a bit silly really isnt it? You'll have to check with google if there is any way of recovering from that.
[G1 Android Development] Karolis:
I have used every single 1.5 release that is available on this forum and I've settled with ADP 1.5H (look at my signature). I'm not installing anything else until JF will make his ADP 1.5 version, which he promised he would.

And please stop writing in large bold fonts -- it's childish.
[G1 Android Development] AtzHash:
Sorry for silly questions and bold text and I have now found my password for gMail.:o:o

Thanks guys for such prompt reply.:D:D

I think I’ll take Karolis and Zappza’s suggestion but can’t wait until JF version. Hope he will release it soon :cool:
[G1 Android Development] wardy277:
ok this may be a silly question but if the main difference between RC9 and RC33 is the contacts phone number format, couldnt you simply flash over the rc33(or ADP 1.5) then copy over the uk app for contacts?

Chris
[G1 Android Development] Karolis:
I've honestly didn't really check what the big differences are if any. But because RC9 was made for the UK, and it's a fact that UK and US versions of the phone differ a bit, I thought it will not hurt using UK firmware.

However, now I'm using ADP which is obviously American (can tell by the number formatting) and it works fine, so in reality who cares :)
[G1 Android Development] hussein.j:
I'm certain that they are exactly the same hardware.
[G1 Android Development] Karolis:
Yeah, I meant the looks.
[G1 Android Development] youbiteme:
I'm using the dudes cupcake .9 and I'm in the uk, I find it 100% for uk use, never noticed about the uk number format.
[G1 Android Development] Karolis:
Yeah, Dude's version had normal number layout. It's ADP 1.5 that has dashes in wrong places.
[G1 Android Development] AtzHash:
Thanks guys for all your help/advise. I’ve installed it and so fat its running good, :) except Toggle Settings doesn’t work.:(

Hope JF will release 1.5 soon. ;)
[G1 Android Development] damokay:
If it's any help, I've just put the JF 1.5 build onto a UK phone and everything looks hunky dory!
[G1 Android Development] billc.cn:
If you're using the H builds, then there will be no number format at all. all numbers are just presented as they are stored. i have numbers like +44 nnnnnn, 07nnnnnnn, (020)nnnnnnn all over the place. even though this probably indicates the programmer is lazy, it also makes it universal. and I love the camera app so much.

btw. I don't really think you can port the contacts app between system. I guess it's tightly coupled with the phone app.
[XPERIA X1 General] Cheecoh:
Hey Guys,

first of all sorry for my bad english :)

I got since some days the beautiful se xperia mobile... i've already hard-spl'ed it and got currently the cmEX rom on it...

I'm searching for a rom which is Vodafone ( german would be nice ) related and maybe a slim version, so that the mobile is still fast and i want to use the spb shell 3.0 ofc with it :)

or maybe i should use another rom like nX1i's v1.04 in german? it is currently the best choice in my point of view...

best regards,

cheecoh
[XPERIA X1 General] Cheecoh:
Over 150 view's... is nobody able to help me with my choice or give me some aspects?
[XPERIA X1 General] Fikachu:
in case you are a german person and can live with a rom containing english language i personally can advise itjes touch-it v7 lite version.

i didnt try it out by myself but the "full-version" works excellent for me after taking 2 or 3 modificiations like bringing the order of the hardware keyboard back to german configuration (it's easy all you have to do is changing one value in the registry of your x1).

it's fast and stable... and lite...

why you dont just use a normal stock rom? everything you need for running spb mobile 3.0 is already in it and new versions are fast and most stable.

please share your experiences with spb 3.0 with me/us. i would like to hear if it can beat touch flo 3d in your opinion. what are its strengts and weaknesses?

another hint: look at the stickys above... there is a topic where every rom (even germans) is listed with a proper description. you should able to find one rom there this suits best for you!

liebe grüße!
[XPERIA X1 General] Cheecoh:
which modifications was it? expect the keyboard :)

yes, maybe i'll try the newest stock rom.. but i want first to aks if somebody got experiences with it and mobile shell.. because on cmEX his rom the sound doesn't works correctly by using the spb shell... :/

in my eyes, the spb shell 3.0 works better and faster then tf3d.. the touchscreen works flawless... you got a lifestyle screen where you can put in you own widgets, also contatcs and so on.. this is splittet in 3 screens which u can change with moving the finger to the left / right ( iphone-like )..

there are many pros which i found in comprehension to tf3d..

only bad thing what i saw till now is that the screen change from normal to landscape or the other way round take 2-3 seconds...

best regards / viele grüße,

cheecoh

[Shift Development] koala996:
yeah definitely and you can even download the XP mode.. to be able to run incompatible applications :) ... so greaaaat !!!
[Shift Development] koala996:
on microsoft website itself.... www.windows7.com .. for example.. there are a lot of links.. there you just need to look for "download windows 7" and you will get the key before the download :)
[Shift Development] Caid444:
That's not working.

for some reason, the site isn't serving up keys, or for that matter, it's not doing anything. After I select the language, and hit go (to download) it takes me to another page with a loading circle in the middle and doesn't load.

Something wrong with the servers?

Caid.
[Shift Development] Pfeffa-rah:
Where did you find that? I need that!

I installed the TC today. It was a lot of frustrating work with a lot of errors.

(It needed drivers for my own external dvd player, It crashed form usb-stick, and corrupted my XP partition)

However,

Now, I have everything running rather smoothly.

There is one program I need that doesnot start, so I would realy like this XP mode I heard about.

thx in advance,

greetz,

[Shift Development] Caid444:
xp mode?

I've got xp SP2 and sp3 listed in my compatibility modes, but not just xp alone. Is the download you're talking about separate from that?

Caid.

just go Paul Thurott's website .. you will find what you need :)

Tried it. It installs and then...... nothing.... no program group or icons and an almost empty xp-mode folder....

Thuroth's instructions don't apply because they seem to be for an older beta version.

Darn. I've managed to install Win7 RC version but I can't get any of the HTC drivers to work...

The VistaECDrvV1[1].0.1.10 says that " DPInst.exe does not execute on your current operating system".

What does THAT mean and why won't it work?!

If I rememember rightly from failing to install XP repeatedly, if that doesn't install then the other drivers just fail too? EG I've installed the WiFi driver but when I go to use it, it says there is no driver.

But apart from the fact I can't actually use Win7 yet, it looks pretty and seems to do things quite speedily :)

OK, so I have to learn to READ... All is installing swimmingly this time :)
[Shift Development] tjkraz:
Just wanted to say that Windows 7 on the Shift is fantastic!!!

Took me about 4-5 hours to get a basic install complete with all of the drivers, but it was time well-spent. All of the HTC drivers and features are supported including the fingerprint scanner, that HTC communications panel, etc.

Biggest headaches were getting the higher resolution display to work (had to turn aero off multiple times as driver installs kept re-enabling it) and my SD card giving me a BSOD. New drivers fixed that, too.

Follow the instructions in the Windows 7 thread (thanks everyone!) and stick with it. Windows 7 is worth a few hours of your time!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] gilligan8:
Sorry for the long topic but hopefully it will help others when searching if we can find a solution.

I'm searched and searched and tried a few different settings but everytime I get a pic message (mms) it comes in as a 4k thumbnailed version.

I have centennial wireless as my provider and I'm using an 888 cooked rom.

I am assuming it is something to do with those registry settings for arcsoft but I don't know which ones will work for my carrier.

I also don't have a data plan and only pay for 10 mms/month (so my testing ability is kind of limited.)

Anyone have a clue? or some full proof settings? :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] gilligan8:
Thanks to Aftashok, there is a solution.

I had actually tried this but for some reason the settings didn't take after the soft reset and I didn't double check them.

Basically you have to find a phone that your provider also supports (as they don't support the Kaiser for me.)

Here is his PM:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] Sean D.:
Yeah this works

Or you can search for a WspHeader CAB floating around here somewhere.

[G1 Android Development] MartinFick:
Could someone post the android 1.5 mkdosfs? I would like to test it out with partitions greater than 2GB. The 1.1 android mkdosfs seems to fail above 2G (looks like the mkdosfs lseek was not built with large file support). If it works, this could make the sdsplit script useful to people with larger sdcards.

Thanks,

-Martin
[G1 Android Development] Vlemmix:
Here you go!

It's from the ADP1.5H-A2SD from haykuro.
[G1 Android Development] MartinFick:
Awesome, thanks! I will report the results soon.
[G1 Android Development] MartinFick:
Good news, that one looks like it works on partitions greater than 2GB!!! Since I do not actually have a partition greater than 2GB, I had to simulate it with a sparse file. This executable worked and the old one (1.1) did not on the sparse file, so there is a good chance this will work for others. I will create a new sdsplit script that will use this one. If anyone else is willing to try this out independently to verify that it does indeed work on large partitions, that would be great!

Thanks again!
[G1 Android Development] MartinFick:
Hmm, can someone confirm that this is the same one as in the pristine HTC 1.5? If so, this might mean that it is not worth updating the sdsplit script since users will eventually all have the 1.5 build.
